I am devastated to hear of the passing of Virgil Abloh, Off-White founder and Men’s Artistic Director of Louis Vuitton, after his private battle with cancer. Virgil was driven by his dedication to his craft and to his mission to open doors for others and create pathways for greater equality in art and design. He often said, “Everything I do is for the 17-year-old version of myself,” believing deeply in the power of art to inspire future generations. May he rest in peace.
